A comfortable win in the end but the first 45 minutes were nervy to say the least. Walcott opened the scoring before goals from Giroud, an own goal, Sanchez and Ramsey sealed a five nil win. However, the game could have been so different if it wasn’t for an excellent save from Petr Cech.

Arsenal come away with no points but the biggest headline will be the dropping of Alexis Sanchez. A better second half after an abysmal first but let that not takeaway what an awful evening it was. Welbeck gave Arsenal hope when pulling one back to make it 2-1 but Liverpool sealed the win in injury time.

Arsenal grabbed an important three points after two straight defeats. Both goals came courtesy of Alexis Sanchez. Arsenal could have fell behind in the first half but Arsenal stepped it up around the half an hour mark but the win was far from comfortable.

Arsenal take all three points in the 97th minute to move up to second in the table. Arsenal took the lead through a Mustafi header. Xhaka then saw a straight red for a two footed lunge not long after. Things then got worst for Arsenal after Coquelin gave away a 93rd minute which meant Burnley levelled the match. However, Arsenal won a penalty in the 97th minute which Sanchez subsequently, scored.

Arsenal get through to the fourth round but it can be described as lucky after a poor performance in that first half. Arsenal fell behind in the 7th minute and was lucky not to be losing by around three goals at half time. However, Ramsey scored straight after half time before Giroud scored the winner in the 89th minute.
